Jazz Jam 50th Birthday Invite

Hi Jammers, I’d like to invite you all to join in for a jazz and possibly some other music – jam session for my 50th Birthday at West End Social Club on friday 31st July.

I will need names for the guest list so that they will let you in.

The club is just down the road that goes past Lightwater from the M3, at the end of the dual carriageway go straight over the roundabout and left at first lights and you are at the back of the building.

Please let me know, thanks, Julia Woodman
